Jewish Americans protest Trump’s exploitation of their identity
Jewish Americans are uniting against the Trump administration's actions related to the detention of Palestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil. A letter from various Jewish organizations urges Homeland Security to stop detaining individuals without due process. Khalil, a green card holder, was taken by federal agents without a warrant. He has not been charged with a crime and was involved in anti-war protests at Columbia University. Hundreds of Jewish New Yorkers protested at Trump Tower, opposing the use of their identity to suppress free speech. They demand Khalil's release and call for a strong response against state violence and repression.
